Merry Christmas From Slowey and the Boats Vol. 1 and 2, Slowey and the Boats (Hi-Tide)

Back in 2017 we had an EP from these guys, who are a mostly instrumental band specializing in the Hawaiian style with a bit of Americana thrown in. They're back in 2024 with a full album, which is the EP expanded with six live recordings of "O Christmas Tree," "Sleigh Ride," "Christmas Island," "Let It Snow," "Feliz Navidad," and "Mele Kalikimaka." Added to the digital version is a previously released single of "This Christmas." Vinyl is available, as are streaming and downloads; those who already have the original release can just add tracks 7 to 13 via download, as those constitute the "Vol. 2" of the title.
